Annual phlox, also known as Drummond's Phlox, is a delightful annual plant that typically grows to a charming height of 6-12 inches, but it can reach up to 20 inches! Its flowers burst with color in shades such as pink, red, white, peach, or lavender, often featuring a lovely pale center. Each 1-inch bloom is trumpet-shaped with a short, narrow tube, creating beautiful clusters that catch the eye. The leaves are soft, hairy, and have a slightly sticky texture.
If the seasons are a bit dry, be sure to give your phlox a drink of water in the fall, winter, and spring. After going to seed, the plant naturally dies back, so consider planting it alongside summer and/or fall-blooming wildflowers for a stunning garden display. And just like with all annuals, letting your phlox reseed will ensure a vibrant showcase for the following year.

Spring Shipping:
Orders are shipped within 7-10 business days. We will email you if there are expected delays.
When you order plants from our nursery, you can expect them to arrive in the best possible condition. Our team carefully packs each order using sturdy, biodegradable packaging materials.
Your plants' appearance may vary depending on the season and their current growth stage. We may cut back the leafy growth of some plants to prepare them for shipment and transplanting.
5 Gallon and Up: Any plant purchased to ship over 5 Gallons will be shipped bare root. This means we will remove the plant from its original pot, remove the soil surrounding the roots, and wrap the roots with a biodegradable plastic bag. This reduces weight and the likelihood of damage during shipping.
Once your plants arrive, it is essential to plant them as soon as possible. This will help them rebound and thrive. If you cannot plant immediately, water regularly and keep the roots off heat-conducting surfaces.
Newly transplanted plants often require more water until their roots are well established. Plan to water them 1-3 times weekly for the first few months.
